Roses on Saturday

On Saturday morning MrM visits his friend, the bookseller,
and then walks along the road to his favourite florist
and buys MrsM and MissM a rose each.
He doesn't buy roses every weekend...
MrM says "It is important to keep 'em keen."

(watch this space...it is coffee-cake shaped)

  1. What a lovely Saturday routine. Aren't books, flowers and cake the three essential food groups?

  3. That man knows the art of romancing! Any chance he might spread the word?

  9. Don't think my husband has ever been into a florist unaccompanied! He'd did come home with a basket of quinces today though and they do smell wonderful.

  10. I don't think Mr R knows flowers exist. He did bring me a bunch of baby turnips once, though. (I think he thought they'd make a nice stew.)

  14. When you think about it, flowers are the perfect gift to express love: they are quite expensive, are very beautiful, and totally ephemeral, except for the memory of the receiving.
